O 1.0 DERIVATION OF CORE RESIDENCE TIMES The derivation of the core residence times for circulating crud as shown in Section 11.1.2 is as follows:

A.

Circulating Crud:

The number of radioactive atoms (N ) in the crud film on f

in-core surfaces at any time is:

dN g *Ed-1"f (11A-1) i dt Solving for N yields the following:

g

^I #*8) atoms /g (11A-2)

N (1 - e

=

g i

Where:

I 4

is the activation rate for each isotope i f

(d/g-sec),

is th decay constant for each isotope A

(secs p),

f and t

is the desired core residence time (seconds).

res The number of radioactive atoms (N ) released to the reactor c

coolant at any time is:

Where:

and a

The activity (A )

of the crud released to the reactor g

into the above expression and assuming 1.

This activity (A.

is also assumed to be the activity of the crud which plated) out on out-of-core surfaces.

Solving equation (11A-7) for t yields quation (1)
